Thank you again. One more question: Does anyone know the year the leader patches (SM, ASM, etc.) changed from the older type to the newer type with the green background? (like the ones used today on khaki background)? Thanks.

Thank you all for your help. Does anyone have Mitch Reis' website to purchase the guide? Thanks.

Hi All, My name is Matt from Council 172 --Hawkeye Area. I have been a Scoutmaster for almost two years, and finally have our troop moving in the right direction: a boy led troop. I was not able to do Scouts when I was a youth, so this is a new experience for me, but one I like. I just went through Ordeal with our local lodge, and now would like to help my boys through their Ordeals. This looks like a good site for many ideas and help.

Hello, I am new to this forum. I'm trying to find out where to get information on correct insignia from 1974-1977. I can't seem to find any insignia guides from those years and a book by Mitch Reis seems to be out of print. Specifically, I am looking for which Scoutmaster Asst Scoutmaster patches are correct, what Trained patch was used. Lastly, is there a common site for council history patches? I'm from 172 Hawkeye Area and wanted correct patch. Thanks!
